Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help,the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However,these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!! A cardiologist says If everyone who sees this post shares it to 10 people, you can bet that well save at least one life.. Rather than sharing jokes only please contribute by forwarding this info which can save a persons life. — with Gipsy Danger, Dan Rebueno Rogando, Lovish Sachdeva, Muthuvel Mani, Rajee Rose, Callista Ugonabo, Karthik Duraisamy, Bala Sundaram, Sandeep Jaiswal, Rosita Festijo, Mariam Lourdes, Julius Esguerra Vicente, Deborah Gannapao Ancheta, Lovely Rachel Lontoc, Vanessa Brito Amisula, Mark Andrew Salazar and Myk Singun Timeline Photos · 1 May 2013 · View Full Size · Send as Message · Report Photo Like·Comment·Share·Get Notifications 85,365 people like this. Post Patricia Belen Thank you Fe for sharing. As you know I had a mild stroke in August of 2011. It was a wake up call. I made a big U-turn and changed my lifestyle. No more processed foods or junk snacks. Everything is fresh no canned foods and in less than 2 yr(2011 to 2013) my cholesterol turn excellent and from size 16 to size 4 at present. Im so glad I changed. It wasnt easy in the beginning. I did it gradually and consistently. Perseverance was the key.

I was on the road coming back from a job in Tucker. It hit me coming through Canton. I pulled into Fire Station 13 and they immediately diagnosed, stopped, and restarted my heart , got me back in rhythm, transported me to cardiac unit. Before they restarted my heartit was hitting about 250bpm, chest felt like it was gonna cave in, couldnt get my breath. When the pain moved to my jaw is when I pulled into the station.

We do not just sit there and pray while watching someone die of a heart attack . we get them to the ER. We do what we can until we get there. We pray because we have a God who is all powerful and who loves like no other. He guides the doctors hands. He guides our hands . but human hands can only do so much. Our God may choose to bring us home to live with him and we will die , but our all powerful God may also have it in his plan to have us live and do more on this earth. Our beliefs will not get us killed . we live a full and real life because of him. And even if we die, it just means we live with him!

Cough CPR is not a new procedure — it has been around for years and has been used successfully in isolated emergency cases where victims realized they were on the verge of fainting and about to go into full cardiac arrest (their hearts were about to stop) and knew exactly how to cough so as to keep enough oxygen-enriched blood circulating to prevent them from losing consciousness until help could be sought, or they were under the direct care of physicians who recognized the crises as they were taking place and wer Read more at snopes/medical/homecure/coughcpr.asp#G3xht4I0S0SriSxO.99 snopes: Cough CPR snopes Like · 138 · Reply · 1 August 10 replies Arnulfo Fuentes If the Lord takes our life anytime, no one can stop it.

This post seems to suggest an alternative to CPR in the way it talks about squeezing n expanding the chest to push air into lungs n force blood out of heart. Heart attack is a generic term that encompasses events like Myocardial Infarction, Arrhythmia, Cardiac Arrest etc. The best thing to do is : 1. Call someone if ur alone 2. Chew on Aspirin (always carry few tablets if ur over 45yrs) 3. Try to stay still n relax by slow deep breathing 4. If u feel dizzy, lie down n raise ur feet onto some chair The best hope is for any Myocardial Infaction patient is that he/she reaches Cardiac care unit within 1st hour.

This is how you kill yourself. 1) When you suffer from heart attack it takes several minutes until it kills you, when you DO the things stated here or things similar to this. Usually most people have half an hour until it would get lethal and that is enough time to call an ambulance for the meds you need. It is not like stumbling and you are instantly dead. Most people can even feel it a day before the main attack because they have pain in their left chest or arm. 2) You MUST NOT move yourself in case of an heart attack. The more you move, the more your heart needs to pump blood into your body. The pumping of air with your lungs is EXACTLY the opposite thing. Sit down. Lay back as far as the pain allows. Do nothing. Dont panic. Dont freak out. Wait for the ambulance to drive you into the hospital. The more you move, the more you kill yourself. After a few minutes the emergency doctor will give you meds that counter the attack, and after an examination of your body you can usually go home after two days or so.

Like · 25 · Reply · 9 August Eddie Emmanuel So many issues with this: 1) The article obviously refers to a Cardiac Arrest (heart stopping), not a Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction), in which heart muscle dies through lack of blood. 2) Anyone who has ever attempted to resuscitate a person who has a Cardiac Arrest knows you need to press down and compress the chest by 1/3rd - 1/2 of its antero-posterior diameter to be effective. Coughing simply wont do this. 3) Since the brain has no independent store of Oxygen or Glucose, if your heart stops, loss of consciousness is almost instantaneous. 4) With all that coughing, who is going to call for the emergency services?

Do NOT try driving yourself to the hospital and do not strain the heart by repetitive coughing. The body needs to conserve all available oxygen for the heart. Coughing like this could increase the demand on the heart. And, it will not work to stop a lethal rhythm. Only an AED (electricity) and prompt medical treatment will. Like · 21 · Reply · 10 August Matilda Heming This is totally inaccurate. The valsalver manoeuvre (coughing and deep breathing) only works for certain arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats.) A heart attack occurs when blood supply is cut off to a part of the heart due to a blockage in an artery. The tissue being supplied by that artery dies, causing the heart attack.
